So, break point is in EXE, is that right? Is that managed or native EXE?

Could you please post deployment log?

Thank you very much for quick response.


By any chance, is that breakpoint in the DLL which is dynamically loaded
(or P/Invoked from managed code)?

No breakpoint code in dynamic DLL in project

PDBs are never deployed to the device.
That is right :-)

Assume that PDB is
If VS can't find PDBs, please set up correct search path for symbols in
project properties.

Assume you mean the setup search path in Tools, Option, Debug, Symbols for
the solution
(This is set to obj/debug nad then to bin/debug )


After even further investigation it seems that the newly built .exe is not
copied to the device ?
This is a mystery...

Always debugging on device.

(that is, we debug when VS2005 allows to do so)

We are haunted by the VS2005 IDE error:
The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded
for this document.

First investigations seems that the IDE for some reason are not
deploying the latest .exe and .pdb to device.
Any suggestion to this one is welcome.

Swan,

I agree that your dev machine seems adequate so I'm surprised that
you're finding the performance worse than VS 2003 - my experience has
been the reverse.

Are you debugging on the emulator or on the actual device? I find that
for modern devices, debugging to a USB attached device is faster.

HTH,

Ginny, thanks for your comment.

My development computer(hopefully reasonable satisfactory stats ?)
1 GB RAM, 2,4Ghz Pentium Mobile, Disk 7200 rpm

To focus the thread:
We do agree that the documentation and communication etc. could have
been
better, but have any seen any statements from MS for cleaning up the
"quirks" in the IDE that effectively stops us from doing our job ?

We are kind of "stuck in the middle", "too late" to revert the
solution back
to VS2003, but development speed in VS2005 is soo sloooow that "it
hurts".


Regards, Swan B.

Swan,

How much RAM do you have in your development machine?

Please, in all fairness ....

I think that anyone using the .NET CF 2.0 for enterprise development
do agree that the VS2005 release is "not the best".

It is not "irrational and over expectant" to expect an IDE that:
- have a conversion wizard that, well, actually convert to 2.0
format
- have a debugger that, well, actually do debug(on a regular
basis, with symbols consistenly loaded to device)
- have the display of forms that, well, is not corrupted at
irregular intervals
- have a "time of display" for forms that, well, of even medium
sized forms does not take like ages
- have an IDE that, well, at best may be described as "sluggish"
- .....

Any, (and I mean any), links or suggestion to service packs or quick
fixes for IDE that may cure these or other bugs for CF development
is more than welcome.

Regards, Swan B.

The Compact Framework 2.0 team needs to finish
the .NET CF 2.0 release.

What?

I bet you'll see a Service Pack for it. Nothing is ever perfect and
Rome wasn't built in a day.

I'm sure they also would appreciate your observations if presented.
Try not to be a confrontation in the future and you'll probably end
up a valued member of the community. Your complaints on your blog
are irrational and over expectant. One of them seems to be, "I
didn't get the code sample I needed".

Why don't you ask for help instead of being pissed about not
getting what you "expected"? That would be a good start. You can
communicate from there.
